Homes for Sale in Manhattan and the Bronx

Manhattan | 575 Park Avenue, No. 509

$549,000

A one-bedroom, one-bath, 750-square-foot prewar apartment with built-in bookshelves and a beamed ceiling in the living room; a windowed kitchen with a dishwasher, wine refrigerator and two-burner electric range (but no oven); a windowed bath with a stall shower; a foyer; and herringbone-patterned hardwood floors, in a 16-story doorman elevator landmark at East 63rd Street that has a gym. Lauren Cangiano, Brown Harris Stevens, 646-286-5900; bhsusa.com

Maintenance

$3,433 a month

Pros

The building began life as a hotel, which explains quirks like the tiny kitchen and complimentary daily housekeeping. The foyer could fit a dining table. The living room and bedroom face south.

Cons

The co-op sits on leased land, which is part of the reason the monthly fees are so high. But the apartment’s price is lower than usual to compensate.

Pros

The home is spacious and has a smooth flow from room to room. There are multiple Hudson River views.
